The tents were pitched on a rising bank within 100 yards of the river, and the lands around it were metamorphosed by the skill of thczardeners of Lahore into verdant parterres, in which wheat, having been sown some days previous, now presented groups of green and growing figures of elephants, horses, deer, birds, &c. This garden was now brilliantly illuminated and decorated with artificial flowers, trees, golden cypresses, &c., tastefully arranged. The interior of the pavilion, however, presented a scene of riches and splendour surpassing the descriptions of the palace of Haroun al Raschid, or of Solomon in all his glory. The floor was - spread with cloth of gold, and within the gorgeous little pavilion before described sere placed three circular seats or thrones sheeted with gold curiously worked. The centre was destined for the Maha raja, and one on either side for the Governor-General and Lady William Bentinck. Behind these thrones was a golden bedstead, inlaid with diamonds, emeralds, rubies, &c., in profusion. The tent was illuminated with golden can delabra. After inspecting this chef cfccuvre of oriental taste and magnificence, the party took their seats in the 4ANcHESTER and LEEDS RAILWAY. Th. TENDERS FOR LOANS.

PENALTIES ON IRISH PAPISTS. RUNJEET SINGH. re -130 ote l: AO" REPORT having been unjustly circulated that LS.. the Fox Commercial Inn, Shrewsbury, is CLOSED, JOHN STRANGE The following are a few of laws passed in the reigns of Anne and George 1., and George 11., for the purpose of rooting out Popery in Ireland, and seven millions of Ca tholics now bear witness to their effects :—Popish fathers were prohibited from being guardians to their own children conforming, however young, to the Protestant religion. No Protestant could marry a Papist, having an estate in Ireland. The estate of a Papist was to be divided after his death, among his children, and in failure of children, among his collateral kin. Papists were excluded from re sidence in Galway and Limerick. Voters at elections were obliged to take the oaths of allegiance, abjuration;and su premacy ; consequently Papists had no vote. No Papist could take an annuity for life. Papists teaching either publicly or privately were to be prosecuted as Popish regular convicts. Popish Priests, on conforming, were to receive a stipend of 30/. per annum till better pro vided for in the Protestant Church. The following rewards were offered for discovering Popish clergy men and schoolmasters ; for an archbishop or bishop, 501. ; for a priest, 20/. ; and for a schoolmaster, 101. No Papist was to take more than twq apprentices, except in the linen trade. Papists were prohibited from being to grand juries. Papists were to fi Protestant icabstituteS for the militia, and to pay-Aet.iiite''The - y were prohibited from being high or petty constables, barristers, and solici tors. Marrying Papists were to be subject to all the penal ties on Papists. Marriages between Protestants and Papists, or those celebrated by Popish priests, were an nulled. Popish priests celebrating marriages between Pro testants and Catholics were to be punished capitally ! " Such," says Mr. M.Culloch, " are the principal clauses of the Anti-Catholic penal code, probably the most atro cious system of tyranny and persecution ever established in any European country." When we add, that the whole of Ireland, with the exception of the estates of five or six families, has been confiscated once, and no inconsiderable portion twice or thrice, in the course of a century, and the estates given to Protestants, can any one wonder that the Irish Protestant Church has long been and still is regarded by Catholics as a badge of slavery and conquest? most respectfully embraces the earliest opportunity of acquainting the Commercial Gentlemen, and the Public generally, that he has purchased the lease of the above Inn with a determination to continue there himself, and endeavour by assiduity and attention to business, with a sincere desire to render each and every guest that may honour him with their patronage, such comfort and ac commodation that may ensure a return of those favours so liberally bestowed on his predecessors. cY ; 10 6d for ialo L ° NOON AND BIRMINWHAVI It AIL- Thci p WAY. 120 i inst.

It consisted of one masa of jewels, of diamonds, pearls, rubies, and emeralds, inter woven in various patterns so thickly that the texture or na ture of the cloth or silk on which they were worked, was quite undistinguishable. " The regiments of Amazons soon made their ap pearance on this occasion, armed with bows and arrows, and headed by their Commander-in-Chief, the favoutite of the day, who was distinguished by a crimson dress and white plume in his turban. There were three suhordinate conadants, each distinguished by a white plume. ATt - er - lhhibiting their dancing for some time, the Maharaja ordered one of them to sing the song of the Hoolee, and a tray of round. silver bowls, filled with gold dust and silver leaf pulverized, having been placed on a footstool before his Highness, the sport and the song commenced. The dancers and the Maharaja opened. the campaign by pelting one another most vigorously with gold dust. Neither the Governoi-General nor Lady William escaped, and the engagement soon became general, and ceased only when the silver bowls were exhausted, and the whole party were covered from head to foot with the glittering powder. The Maharaja suffered the most se verely, for during his contest with the Amazons the latter contrived to throw a handful straight into his sound eye, which nearly extinguished the luminary, and he did not completely recover from the wound during the rest of the evening. • OLIVER TWIST, By "B 0 Z."

MINERAL SUCCEDANEUNI FOR FILLING DECAYED TEETH, LOOSE TEETH FASTENED, AND LOSS OF TEETH SUPPLIED. Monsieur MALLAN Surgeon Dentist, 9, Half Moon-street, Piccadilly, continues to restore DECAYED TEETH with his MINERAL SUC CEDANEUM, (of which he is the Sole INVENTOR and POSSES SOR), without pain, heat, or pressure, and FASTENS LOOSE TEETH, whethe arising from age, neglect, disease of the Gums, the u , e of Calomel, or any other cause. He has also discovered a NEW COM POSI'T'ION for ARTIFICIAL TEETH. A peculiaradvantage attending Teeth made from this SUBSTANCE is, that they are totally imper vious to acids. ARTIFICIAL TEETH have hitherto been found objectionable by INVALIDS taking MEDICINES which have a ten dency to DISCOLOUR them, and by persons of bilious habits. Mons. M. has been successful in obviating these objections by his NEW DIS COVERY, and he can fix the above without extracting the STUMPS, Or causing any incumbrance, and even on GUMS of the most tender n - tture, protecting the adjoining Teeth, however loose. No WIRES or LIGATURES are used, and they MATCH the ORIGINAL TEETH in point of Shape and Colour. GUARANTEED for MASTICATION and ARTICULATION. In consequence of his improvements in the - I,chanical department of Dentistry, he is enabled to reduce his charges to th e following scale:— - A single Artificial Tooth A Sot 5 5 0 A set of Natural Teeth, on fine gold plate l5 0 0 A Set •f Mons.

B LAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS. Another extraordinasy cure of Rheumatism, from Lincolnshire, eorn munioated by Mr. Hall, Bookseller, Gainsborough. (To Mr. Front, 2.2 d, Strand, London.) Gainsborough, April 7, MI, SIR,— I am requested by Thomas Thornhill, of this town, to communi sate to you the almost miraculous benefit he has received from the use of Blair's Pills ; he purchased a box of them at my shop last night, stating that he had been suffering from Rheumatic Fever for the last fifteen weeks, which had rendered him unable even to so much as to lift his hand to his head, without great pain. I was astonished to see him a g ain this afternoon, laughing and throwing his arms about like a madman. He came to state, that he is already all but cured. I really could not have imagined that a single day could have made such a difference in the ap pearance of a man. Yesterday he was despairing of relief, and looked the picture of misery, to-day he is full of spirit, and seems as happy as a prince. The fame of the Medicine is now spreading rapidly ; I see my stock is exhausted, you will therefore oblige by sending six dozen boxes imme diately, to Your obedient servant, B. S. HALL. Those Pills are taken without the least care or attention, by either sex, young or old, and have the peculiar property of entirely removing the dis. ease without debilitating the frame, which is universally left in a stronger and better state than before the malady commenced. And there is another most important effect belonging to this Medicine—that it prevents the disease flying to the brain, stomach, or other vital part. sold by Thomas Prom, 229, Strand, London ; arid, by his appointment by all respectable Medicine Venders throughout the United Kingdom.

FALL OF ARCHES ON THE MANCHESTER AND LEEDS RAILWAY, AT WAKEFIELD.—On Thursday morning an accident, attended with loss of life, happened in Kirkgate, i n Wakefield. As a waggon, loaded with rubbish, was passing over the line of brick arch e s a djoining the western end of t h e viaduct, two of them gave way with an instantaneous and tre mendous crash. Nine men and a boy (who was driving the horse attached to the waggon) fell with the ruins, and one man, James Williams, was so seriously crushed as to leave but faint hopes of his recovery. He was immediately taken to his lodgings, where he was attended by Mr. Rowlandson, sur geon ; he lingered until half-past twelve o'clock, when he died. Another man was much injured, but there are strong hopes of his speedy recovery. Most of the others were more or less bruised ; the boy escaped unhurt. The horse had his back broken, and it was found necessary to kill it. It is ap parent that the adjoining arches have sustained such a shake as to render the utmost caution necessary in approaching th em. We have heard more than one opinion given as to the cause of the accident, but refrain from giving them publicity until after the Coroner's inquisition, before which, as a matter of course, the best scientific evidence will be produced..__ Wakefield Journal. ANOTHER ACCIDENT ON THE BIRNIINGIIAM RAILWAY.—A delay of some hours took place yesterday morning in the arrival of the mail trains in consequence of some of the carriages having been thrown off the rails near Brandon, from the negligence of some of the Company's men in not having the points that connect the rails properly set. None of the passengers were at all injured. Yesterday morning, between eight and nine o'clock, the body of a man, apparently between fifty and sixty years of age, was taken from the Regent's Canal, near Old Oak Com mon, and conveyed to the nearest public-house. Judging from appearances, the man could have been in the water but a very short time. He was of very gentlemanly exterior and of dark complexion. He was dressed in a bottle-green body coat (Newmarket cut) with gilt buttons, buff waistcoat with rolling collar, black trowsers, Blucher boots, chocolate coloured silk cravat, a fine linen shirt, drawers, and white cotton stockings ; there were no initials on the linen ; no pa pers or documents were found on the person of the deceased to trace his identity ; neither was there any cash or other property discovered when he was seached. There were no external marks of violence apparent on the body. On Friday night one of the servants in the employ of the London and Birmingham Railway Company, found in one of the first class of carriag es, after all the passengers who had come by the latest train had left, a pocket-book, acon taining a cheque on a London bank for 2,0001., and 2,5001. in bank notes. He delivered the pock et -book and its ae c sN o a n s ten fo t r s w to ar t d h e e d t p o ri t n h c e ipa g l e o n ffi tle c m er an on t t o he w e h s o ta m bli i s t hm hei en o t n , g w ed he , n i t s t address being discovered from some letters in t he pocket -book.

He immediately tendered 20/. as a reward for this bring contrary to a regulation of the Dire ctors, the p arty terestoration discovering of f t h h i honesty to the party who found his money in the ca rria g e, but e s p o though a poor man, could not receive the reward. As the temp tation, however, was so great to apply the money to his own use, the matter is to be brought before a meeting of the Directors , when, it is to be hoped, they will, in so peculiar a case, allow a deviati on f rom their rule of not suffering their servants to receive any reward for restoring lost property. A most disgraceful exhibition took place in Dul verton, Devonshire, last market day. A man of the name of Harris, of Knowstone, said to be a returned transport, brought into gpal t c h e e , open space in front of the White Hart 1110, with a halt er round her waist, and publicly offered her for sale. hisat w f t te t r a i k e in m r any ineffect ua l a tt empts to preven t the demoralis in g' supporting n vv and edn i e n s c s d l it a e i y n gw was ancoti9.—Plyritouth Journal—[lneffectual Thomas, laboorcr, Knowstone, for the sum of 6d.

It was drawn up by an eye-witness, and circulated in a small printed tract, of which we believe few copies remain in existence : The preliminary arrangements for the interview be tween the Governor-General of British India and the Maharaja Runjeet Singh, the ruler of the Punjab, having been settled by written communications through the channel of Captain Wade, the political assistant, the Governor-General and family left Simla on the 19th of November, and proceeded, by a new road through the hills, to Rumgurh and Nalagurh, two hill forts, which were taken by Sir D. Ochterlony from the Goorkhas in 1814-15. On the evening of the 22d the Governor-General rode from Nalagurh to Roopur, where th e camp had arrived the day before by another route. Roopur is the principal place of residence of Sir. dar Bhoop Singh, one of the protected Sikh chiefs. It is a dilapidated brick town, with a small but picturesque fort, situated on the left bank of the Sutlej, on a rising ground overlooking the river, which, at sunset, is seen from its towers winding like a silvery snake through the apparently interminable plains to the westward. On the opposite bank of the Sutlej the eye rests upon a range of low hills, formed of sand and sandstone, thinly sprinkled with herbage. 'Upon a confined plain, which slopes down to the river, the Lord of the Five Rivers' encamped un der a royal salute, with about 10,000 of his choicest troops. On the morning of the 25th a deputation, con sisting of General Ramsay, Mr. H. T. Princep, the prin cipal secretary, with the Governor-general, Major Benson, his Lordship's private military secretary, and Majors Maclachlan and Caldwell, was imme diately despatched by the Governor. General to congratulate his Highness on his arrival, while a similar deputation on the part of Runjeet Singh came to inquire after the health of the Governor-General. The latter party consisted of Raja Konwur Kurk Singh, the eldest son of the Maharaja, with six Sikh sirdars of dis tinction, and Fuqeer Azeez-00-Deep, his Highness's phy sician, philosopher, euphuist, and secretary, Mr. Pakenham, his Lordship's private secretary, Mr. Ravenshaw, deputy political secretary, and Captain Higgenson, Aide-de-camp, n ere appointed to meet the deputation, and conduct it to the presence of the Governor-General. There was little in the personal appearance of Konwur Kurk Singh to indicate his fitness to he the successor of his father as ruler of the turbulent Sikhs. He is a plain, dark, and apparently an un educated man, with a dull expression of countenance. His knowledge of languages is apparently confined to that of Punjabic, as he did not seem to understand a syllable of the conversation which was addressed to him in Hindoostanee. Fuqeer Azeez-00-Deen, however, was an able interpreter of his sentiments, or in their default of the sentiments which he ought t o have entertained and ex?ressed on such an occasion. All the flowers and tropes of the poets of Asia, all the powers and beauties of nature and art, were put in requisition by the Fuqeer to express the feelings of delight with which the Maharaja contemplated the ap proaching interview. The showers of friendship had cooled the oppressive heat of the two previous days, and the balmy zephyrs from the Himalaya of mutual esteem had refreshed the hearts of the two potentates which were panting to be united. " This union was spoken of as the fruit of the tree of friendship, which, planted by Sir C. Metcalfe in 1808, had grown and flourished for the last twenty years. " The following morning having been fixed for the Ma haraja's first visit to the Governor-General, General Ram say, Major Lockett, and Mr. Ravenshaw, were directed to proceed to his Highness's tents, and accompany him to the English camp. " A bridge composed of twenty-six flat-bottomed boats of the country, similar perhaps to those which 2,000 years ago conveyed the army of Alexander down the Hydaspes, was constructed across the Sutlej (here about 120 yards wide), at the same spot where tradition relates that Nadir Shah crossed this river on his return from the sack of Delhi. " The Maharaja issued from his tents a little after sun rise, with an immense suwarree of elephants, richly capari soned, and bearing on their gilded howdahs all the principal rajas and sirdars of his court. Six battalions of his infantry formed a street leading down to the bridge. Here a con siderable delay in the progress of the cortege occurred, as, the bridge being made of rather slight materials, not more than five or six elephants could be allowed to cross at a time. The whole of Runjeet Singh's cavalry, consisting of about 3,000 of his Ghore-churra, or Garde du Corps, and 800 of Monsieur Allard's Dragoons, first passed the bridge, and formed on the opposite side in a street, extending a distance of about three quarters of a mile. " The Ghore-churras were dressed in loose garments of yellow silk, and were armed with spears, matchlocks, pis tols, and bows ; the chiefs appeared cap-a-pie, wearing round polished steel helmets, surmounted with heron plumes and burnished c uirasses, arm-pieces, and glaives, many neatly inlaid with gold. " The Maharaja ate his breakfast while crossing the bridge, and then headed the procession up the street formed by the troops, preceded by Khoshal Singh, the Commander-in -Chief of his forces, and his Chamberlain, Raja Minn Singh, both prancing before him on gaily caparisoned chargers, and ready to execute his commands. The troops, as be passed, rolled up on either side, form ing, as it were, two expanding wings to the eagle of the Punjab, who watched and directed all their movements himself, waving them back when their eagerness led them too much in advance, and urging them forward into line when broken and disordered, or had fallen at all into the rear. It was an interesting spectacle to observe this famed chieftain regulating with voice and hand the motions of a part of the warrior host be had so often led to victory and conquest. The scenery, as they approached the Go vernor-General's camp, was in accordance with the pictu resque character of the procession. is s e situate hills,on h l e t h town o ws summit m andm t of the sloping pla in, a pp eared the camp, with it s w hi te " A fine open plain sweeps up from the river, an d is bounded, at the distanc e of about 11 or 12 miles, b y a range of low hills dotted here and there with templ es an d the pyram ids of canvass , lai d out in streets runnin g b ack to ft oorm:b of s , a R t 0 the op u r ; extremity at the base of which of f to wards the bills, and their front tents forming a line faci ng t ow ards the rivers. To the north the Himalaya bounded a view, its snowy peaks glittering in the morning sun, and the white buildings of Nalagurh were distinguishable on the lower range, though at the distance of eleven miles. " the troops which formed the Governor-General' s escort on this occasion consisted of eight guns of Horse Artillery, two squadrons of the Lancers, his Majesty's 31st Infantry, the 14th and 32d Native Infantry, and two squadrons of Colonel Skinner's horse, and were drawn up in a fine street of about sixty yards wide, to receive and salute his High ness on his approach and entrance into the camp. On proceeding up the line, and observing his Majesty's 31st Foot, he, moved close up to them, and continued for some minutes attentively examining a corps which was the first Europea n reg i ment h e h a d ever seen un d er arms . Th e Governor-Gener a l' s s u warree now a ppeared approaching from the other end of the street, and on the two parties meeting, the Maharaja stepped into his Lordship's howdah, and the usual embrace was exchanged between them. On alighting, the Maharaja and his principal chiefs were conducted into the first of the state tents, where several of th e officers of the escort and suite were intro (i uced to his Highness ; after this ceremony, a select num ber of his sirdars accompanied him into an adjoining tent of equal size, connected with the first by a covered passage. Here hi s Hi g h ness b e i ng h an d e d to a chair at the right of his Lordship, folded his legs up under him, in the attitude of Boodh a seated u his lotus throne. The Lion of on Lahore' is about fifty years of age, diminutiveln-stature, and emaciated in person. The small pox has deprived him of his left eye ; his remaining one is prominent, cool, and in telligent. His forehead 'being completely covered by his yello v silk turban, it was impossible to ascertain its cha racter ; his n ose is not of the sharp form which usually characterizes the Sikhs, but is slightly retrousse. His mouth i s well formed, and his chin dignified with the honours o f a ion gra beard. He was dressed like his followers in yellow silk, y this colour and green being termed bus of spring, which the Maharaja untee,' or the livery directed all his Court, male and female, to wear as an emblem of joy, and an outward visible sign that the tree of friend friendship planted between the two States was in its spring, putting forth the green leaves and yellow blossoms of mutual courtesy and civilities, the promise of good fruit and prosperity hereafter to both c ountries. Such was the mortal habitation of that active mind, which for the last 30 years has soared above his contenworaries, sub dued all the independent chiefs of the Punjab under his isway, and cur b e d w ith a fi rm but delicate hand the insolen t and ambitious fanaticism of the Akalees. " After the usual eorneliments3 it was to be expected that he would exhibit some scintillations of a master spirit, And all ears were directed to catch the revelations of the oracle ; a pause ensued, his lips moved, Lord Sahib kooch peea ?' which hardly requires to be translated, burst through the folds of his mustachios ; a discussion of the compara tive merits of the wines of the two countries' ensued, during which his Highness observed, that ,the English wine was the foot soldier, bat the Lahore wine (which is about three times as strong as whisky) the horse ; and that for his" part, not being particular, he preferred the latter. " Talking of the present meeting, be said, that on every important crisis, when human reason was baffled to pene trate into the future, or decide on the right course of ac tion, it was the custom of the Sikhs to consult the holy scriptures of the Grunth, after the manner of the jtoman sortes Virgiliancr ; that when Holkar solicited his joining in the league aginst the English, as also on the present occa sion, the oracle had enjoined him to do nothing displeasing to the British Government, but ever to cultivate its friend ship. To this it was replied, that human reason and fore sight might often prove as good oracles as the Grunth. Cu riosity appears to be a principal feature of the Maharaja's character ; his inquiries on all subjects were incessant, but were chiefly directed to details respecting thentanagemeet tand discipline of the army. *" 1 " At his particular request, General Adams, Mr. Clerk, political agent at Umballa, Captain Kennedy, the local agent at Sobathoo, and other officers of whom he had heard, were introduced to him, after which the principal sirdars who attended him were introduced to the Governor- General. " The European band of his Majesty's 31st, and that of the Governor-General, which were placed in adja cent tents, called forth his warmest eulogiums, and those of his son Kurk Singh ; and as a substantial token of his admiration, he made them a present of 2,000 rupees. The usual trays were then laid out, which contained, among other valuable European articles, two very handsome thorough bred English horses, from the Hisser stud. The Maharaja took leave of the Governor-General, apparently much gratified by his visit. On returning down the line of troops, he stopped his elephant before one of the native infantry regiments, seemingly examining their accoutre ments and bearing. " On the morning of the 27th, Kurk Singh, with a party of sirdars, came to conduct the Governor-General and his suite to the tents of Runjeet Singh. The lancers and the body guard formed the Governor-General's escort on this occasion, which having crossed the bridge of boats, formed in line on the opposite bank, at some little distance from the river. When the Governor-General's cortege came up, the Maharaja was observed on his elephant, within a few yards in front of the lancer corps, attentively inspect ing them through a telescope, and so absorbed was he in the contemplation, that it was some minutes before he could be made to understand that the Governor-General had ar rived. The cavalcade moved on, preceded by the mounted lancer band, which awoke the delighted echoes of the hills through which the road here winds with such refined strains as could never before have enlivened their solitude. Two battalions of infantry, under the command of M. Court, formed a street to the two gates or triumphal arches leading to the Royal pavilion. Kanauts of crimson cloth on the outside and yellow silk within formed a quad rangular inclosure round the Maharaja's tents of about 200 yards square. The arched gateways were similarly covered with cloth of the same colour, relieved by yellow embroidery and golden spires on the summits. The exterior of the pavilion was of the same colour, mounted with neat borders of yellow cloth. A long open arcade, composed of a number of con nected semianas, formed the approach to the tent. Chairs were placed on either side of this arcade, where the Go vernor-General and his suite were requested to take their seats. The ground was spread with silks and Persian car pets of the most beautiful patterns and finest description, and the semianas overhead were lined with Cashmere shawls fringed with gold. But the interior of the pavilion, adopting the language of the Fuqeer Azeez-00-Deen, would silence even the nightingale of the garden of elo quence. The lining and kanauts were of crimson velvet, richly embroidered with gold in a variety of neat patterns, and in the centre of the tent was a small pavilion of crimson velvet, so richly embroidered with gold, pearls, and precious stones, that the velvet was scarcely distinguishable. This costly bower served to conceal the cushioned throne of the Maharaja from vulgar eyes. " There were two very pretty but small pavilions, one on each side of the large tent. In the front of that to the right was standing a picturesque group of the Ghore-churra Chiefs, dressed chiefly in yellow silk, but many of then, armed like Paladins, with bows, spears, matchlocks, and every variety of weapon. " The tent on the left was fitted with equally formidable corps of Amazons, whose arrows shot from their beaux yeux doubtless committed great havoc among the warriors of the Punjab. " The Maharaja on the present occasion was dressed in green silk. The only jewels he wore were diamonds ; sprig of diamonds in the shape of a flower projected hori zontally from his turban, and in the centre of an armlet composed of three diamonds, was the famous Koh-i-noor, or Mountain of Light,' which formerly shed its beams from the summit of the Peacock Throne of Delhi. It. is of an oval shape, cut like a brilliant, and is about the size of an egg, or about an inch and a quarter in length by one in breadth, and half an inch in height or depth. The diamonds on each side of it are also very large, and are cut in the shape of a heart. The three are set in plain gold with an enamelled border, on the principle, I imagine, that it is folly to gild refined gold, or paint the lily.' " After the principal officers, civil and military, who had accompanied the Governor-General, had been introduced, the principal Sikh Chiefs were presented to the Governor- General by Khosbal Singh and Raja Dhion Sing. Heera Singh, the son of Dhion Singh, a very pretty boy of eleven years of age, who is a great favourite of the Maharaja, sat at the feet of his patron on a gilt footstool during the ceremonies. After the above introduction had taken place, a company of the female battalion was ushered in, but we were disappointed to find that they were unarmed except with their charms, and these were obscured by the silver leaf which it was their pleasure to daub in a circle round their eyes. Many of them were very fair and good looking, and their dresses were gay as their calling. This exhibition concluded, the horses of the Maharaja, all splen didly caparisoned, were paraded before the tents, and among them, astonished at his costly trappings of velvet and gold, stalked the huge shaggy-haired gray cart-horse, sent to Runjeet Sing by his late Majesty. " On the evening of the 28th Runjeet Singh was invited to witness a review of the troops forming the escort of the Governor-General. He came dressed in green, and rode on the famous horse Kuhar, a dark bay, for the possession of which he made war on one of the chiefs of the Indus. The lancers rode past him in single file, so that he could examine each individual in succession ; he handled one of their spears, but thought it too heavy to be wielded with effect. When the infantry formed into squares he directed Khoshal Singh, his Commander-in-Chief, to ride up and ascertain how many ranks knelt, and how many were standing ; and observed, that though he bad clouds of ca valry, it would be impossible for them to make any impres sion on such a wall of iron' as was presented by the brist ling bayonets. He appeared to take great interest in all the movements of the troops, and the only point in which they did not come up to his expectations was in thQ a— • dity of their movements, which he had imagined so be, much greater. On the following morning, the r...>9t11., the Go vernor - G e neral went across the Sutlej to witness review of hi s Himhness's forces, amounting to 1 .0,000 or 11,000 men. U pon entering the field, a Inilliant spectacle presented itself. On the left, anali;parently i%ifinite li ne o f cava l ry was drawn up, consisting of 5,000 Ghore-churras, dressed in yellow, interspelsed at intervals with small bodies of Akalis, dresser', in dark blue velvet, and high caps sur mounted by quoits. On the right were six battalions of infantry, each of LW:A) strong. Their uniform is a red turban, red coat, with black belt and yellow facings, and white trous , ,y r s. After these came the horse artillery, con sisting of 10 guns, the greater part brass, but about six of iron. The carriages were slight, and the horses very in different. M. Allard's Dragoons, about 800 strong, fol lowed these. Their uniform is a steel helmet, in the shape of a Sikh turban, red coats with black belts, white trou sers, and jack boots. Their arms, the spear, sword, car bine, and pistols. " The Maharajah had erected in the...centre of the plain a portable silver bungalore, of two s . .ories, in the front of which projected a handsome serniana„ gar awning, the ground being spread with rich carpets. Mere the Governor-Gene ral and Maharaja took their seit s , to see the review, in which the cavalry took no part, The manoeuvres of the infantry were conducted with great steadiness and regula rity, In marching and firin, they are not excelled by any of the Company's troops, and their discipline is highly cre ditable to the Maharaja, considering the little assistance he has derix ed f rom European officers, and the unruly and bigotted spirits w h om h e had to tame and reconcile to the harness of di sc i p li ne and regular habits. He says, that he has 20 battalions of regular infantry, similar to those re viewed, and 100 ga ll oper guns, besides a l arge battering " After this sport a tray of wine and sweetmeats eras brought in, and Runjeet Singh, with incessant importunities, pressed the Governor-General and his other guests to fol low his example in drinking of the Lahore wine, which tasted very like whisky, a pleasant flavour being substituted for the smoky taste of the latter. The Maharaja sent for all his jewels, and exhibited them to Lady William. These consisted of the Koh i Noor above described, an immense round topaz about two inches in diameter, a very large irregular shaped ruby, which bad inscribed on it the names of seven monarchs, to whom it had previously belonged, a long narrow emerald, about 2.1 inches in length, and several other curiosities. Under the ex hilarating effects of the whisky the Maharaja began to be quite elated, and repeatedly shook hands with General Ramsay and Colonel Arnold, who were standing near him, begging them to eat, drink, and be happy. It was 8 o'clock before he would allow the Governor-General to take leave and return to his camp to dinner. The fireworks, which were exploding all this time, were little attended to, so much did the little lion of the Punjab attract the interest of his guests to himself. _ . " On Monday, the 31st of October, his Highness the Maharaja came over at sunrise to witness a few field movents of artillery, and then to see howitzer practice at curtains : he was attended by a few favoured sirdars, and appeared to observe the practice with intense interest. Three rounds were fired with grape shot at 400 paces ; the guns then retired to 600, 800, and 1,000 paces re spectively, and fired spherical case. The Maharaja ex amined the charges, the shot, and the level of the guns, and watched the effect, asking whether it would be pos sible for cavalty of any kind to advance up to guns so. served ; he then went up to inspect the curtains, and had the number of holes in a square counted. fly his desire, two six-pounders were sent for, and fired at a mark ; having expressed a desire to try his own prowess, he sent out a chatta as a target, giving special directions that the busuntee (yellow) side should not be presented in face of the gun. After ten minutes spent in laying the gun, with the assistance of all the sir dars and chamberlains, Runjeet gave orders to fire, and the ball went wide ; he made one more trial and failed, when he ordered our people to fire, and the chatta was knocked to pieces the third shot. After this exhibition had con cluded, the Maharaja, in his turn, ordered a display of agility on the part of his chosen troops, differing in quality from the heavy resistless character of our feats of artillery as much as the agile movements of Saladin from the mo tionless defence of Sir Kenneth ; he had pegs driven into the ground for his spearsmen to tilt at with their lances at full gallot ; a bottle was placed to be broken at gallop also, by his men and by Col. Skinn er 's h orse , w ith match locks. This amusement lasted for an hour; a lota was also placed on one of the pegs, to be cut at with a sword. His Highness thinking his people less ready and expert than they ought to be, though, on the whole, they surpassed Colonel Skinner's men, rode out himself and made a cut at the unfortunate brass-pot, but his sword went not near it. In conclusion, he was presented with a couple of six pounders, with horses, and complete equipments, and took his leave. " In the evening Mr. H. T. Princep and Major Cald well crossed the Sutlej to invite and escort the chieftain of the Sikhs to an entertainment of leave-taking at the Go vernor-General's tents. He was brought over with due ceremonies, and seated at a banquet-table of sweetmeats and liqueurs ; among which the limpid essence of Geneva and the mountain dew of Caledonia seemed to meet with the most unqualified approval. A. beat model of an iron suspension-bridge in brass, ebony, and satinwood, executed by Captain Baker, Superintendent, which had just arrived in time to be put together for exhibition at this last in terview, was presented and explained to his Highness, who was particularly pleased with it, and afterwards examined it more fully in another tent. He desired M. Court, of his service, an officer educated at the Ecole Polytechnique, to take charge of it, and talked of ordering several such bridges from Calcutta. " A paper was then brought by Mr. Princep, and sub mitted for signature to the Governor-General, assuring the, Maharaja of perpetual friendship. It had been his Higir ness's particular wish that such a document should be de livered to him from his Lordship's own hands at a parting interview, as a yad-dasht or memorial of friendship, Run jeet desired that it might be read, which was done,. the Fuqeer Azeez-0 0 -D een t rans l a ti ng i t sentence by sen tence into simple barbarous Hindoo, a language wliich did not admit of his usual garniture of florid rhetoric. Before the party broke up, Lady William Bentinck prese•ated trays to his Highness, including a handsome mus'‘cal box. With many declarations of everlasting friend , P.. ) .lip and professions of regret at parting, the arbiters of the destinies of India, from the Indus to the confines of diva, separated. His Highness said he could not bow: to remain alone on the Sutlej, as it would remiP:a 'lira of the happiness he had ex perienced, and that. 'as his Lordship moved east, he should return west nex*. day, giving up his intended pilgrimage to Amindpoor I '..:lukuwal. Thus ended the imposing pageant of an e rntful week, which, embodied as it were those vivid ikea r- as the imagination forms o f th e magn ifi cent d ays o f (3- livalry and fields of cloth of gold.' The impression it made on the minds of all who beheld it, will, I doubt not. still further improve the good understanding and friendly feeling subsisting between the British Government and their able, powerful, and prudent ally, the ruler of the Punjab." ROYAL ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY.—The first meeting of this Society was held on Friday evening in its apartments at Somerset House, Francis Bally, Esq., in the chair. Many donations were announced as having been re ceived during the recess, and Profess or Christi e , o f Wo o lwich,. the Rev. Professor - Powell, and Mr. Epps, director of the Observatory at Hartwell, were elected members. The first communication read was a paper from the Director of the Royal Observatory at Wilna, containing sundry observations on the planets, culminating stars, and occulations of the moon ; after which a communication was read from Professor Bessels, of Konigsburg, addressed to Sir John Herschel!, containing the result of his observations to determine the parallax of the fixed stars. His observations were made with his new powerful micrometer on the double star 61 Cygnus, which from being situate near the Pole might be seen with greater advantage. He commenced in 1834, and resumed his obser vations in 1837, selecting two stars of 91- magnitude. He made sixteen observations every night, and more when occa sions required, the unsteadiness of the atmosphere being the greatest obstacle to the accuracy of these and other equally nice observations. The detail of the ohservations extended to a considerable length, and he arrived at the conclusion that the annual parallax was 03,136 of a second, which gave in round numbers a distance from, the sun of 657,700 times the radius of the earth's orbit, and which would take light to travel there a period of 10 3-10 years. The calculations, which were very elaborate, guaranteed more accuracy than a statement of mere results, and the author expressed a hope that the attention of the astronomers of this country would be devoted to the subject.
